Danse Away was having only his second start over fences when battling to victory at Navan and, though 7lb higher, should be capable of better. Lilshane bounced back to his best when tackling 2m6f at Limerick last week - he was in the lead at this trip and a 6lb rise looks fair. Art Of Security, a winner on the Flat and over hurdles, has yet to get to grips with fences so this looks a good opportunity for SIR CARNO (NAP). Gordon Elliott's dual hurdles winner makes his handicap debut over fences after narrow defeats at Thurles and Navan and looks potentially much better than a 125-rated chaser. Kilfenora was a long way behind him at Navan but was badly impeded and should get closer.
